It can be done without stripping down the entire dash, as follows:-
- Drop your glovebox by pressing the tang in (RHS) this gives you more room.

You only need get the tang partially started, then gently pull the sensor against the harness to pull-out the connector. A little bit of patience is need, long thin arms help (best not to ask the wife I found)
- Refitting is easy, manipulate the new sensor into position and rotate to lock it in place, The connector should then easily push back in.
